Hmmmm, cant tell you how many times I needed to sharpen my pencil in
the middle of something.

A drill with a built in pencil sharpener (but outside the main chuck),
manual or electric would be very helpful, I'd bet a lot of folks would
find it a very useful idea to sharpen a pencil in a hole in the back
of the drill.

This one looks like it will kill the pencil though, but might be
useful for tapering 1/4 inch dowel ends.

Why not? They make drills with built-in levels.

With a variable-speed drill and a light touch, it might work.

I'd like one with a built in can opener.

And maybe a malted milk mixing attachment.

Heck, they put sex toys on them. The one that cracked me up
was the modified sawsall.
